This volume of The Grand Scribe's Records includes the second segment of Handynasty memoirs and deals primarily with men who lived and served under Emperor Wu (r. 14187 B.C.). The lead chapter presents a parallel biography of two ancient physicians, Pien Cheh and Tsang Kung, providing a transition between the founding of the Han dynasty and its heyday under Wu. The account of Liu Pi is framed by the great rebellion he led in 154 B.C. and the remaining chapters trace the careers of court favorites, depict the tribulations of an illfated general, discuss the Hans greatest enemy, the Hsiungnu, and provide accounts of two great generals who fought them. The final memoir is structured around memorials by two strategists who attempted to lead Emperor Wu into negotiations with the Hsiungnu, a policy that Ssuma Chien himself supported.
